914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Help with Center Cap

Posted by: NJTom Feb 26 2017, 11:00 AM

Hi this is my "spare" so please don't mind the rust. I'm hoping someone can point me in a direction for new Center caps. I was told these aren't the stock wheels. Only looking for a short term solution I've picked out a new set of wheels but not in the budget right now. As you can see, the opening is 3 inches and that seems bigger than anything I've seen. It would be a shame to have lousy wheels when the motor been rebuilt and the cars has a new paint job. Thanks in advance!

Very true. Same diameter as the VW cap and any bug shop should have them in the stamped and unstamped variety. You can also get them with the Porsche crest in the center.
